It would probably be possible to write a layout engine for diagrams to get the best of both worlds. Would be great for some drawing, other diagrams work well with drag and drop.

The big difference is that traditional automakers are almost entirely supplier-innovation-driven and their competitive advantage basically lies in the integration of these supplied parts and solutions. If there are problems with, for exampl

It doesn‘t look like it as it appears that inflation is contributing to wealth inequality. Do you have any sources for your claims?

I feel the same. It‘s really strange that the „forensic accountant“ suggests to calculate the royalty from the retail price, is that common practice anywhere? At least in my country, everything business related is calculated from the net pr

Thanks for your answer! I think it‘s a tradeoff between syntactic simplicity and explicitness. I enjoy languages like Scala or Rust that are more explicit, but I enjoy Julia as well (partly because of its simplicity).

Would you be willing to provide an example where this becomes a problem? Probably unpopular opinion, but I don‘t think this should be a problem for structured applications and hints at a more fundamental design problem.

I wonder if that idea also makes sense in an organizational context. Big corporations often seem very ineffective on first sight, yet they produce something meaningful nevertheless.
